"With God, All Things Are Possible."
Dear Parents and Guardians,
Mary serves as a model of true faith, accepting God's
will despite her lack of comprehension and even
reservation in relation to the angel's message of God's
saving work. Mary is the first disciple of Jesus. She
responded to God's call in her life by saying "Yes" to
God. In saying "Yes" to God's divine initiative, Mary
became the living channel of grace for the world. For
it was through Mary that God came into the world as
one of us. It was through Mary that God came into
the world as the Jew from Nazareth,the assurance
that nothing Jesus Christ; the one who lived, suffered,
was crucified, and who rose again from the dead for
the world. All this became possible because of Mary's
faith and her willingness to cooperate with God.
Because of Mary, we know that grace became flesh
and grace is at work in history, among us, and in us.
Finally, Mary is the model of the Church as the
people of God who are called to be Christ-bearers in
the world. In other words, each of us are called by
God to be like Mary. When we look, at Mary we can
see that God wants to give birth to Christ in each of
us. As Christ is born in your heart, you bear him in
the world and offer him to others. As Mary bore
Christ in the water of her womb, we bear him in our
hearts. And, like Mary, God comes to us with the
assurance that nothing is impossible with God. With
God, our fear and anxiety about the future can be
overcome. With God, we can step into the future and
deal with whatever it holds for us.
Prayerfully,
Sister Patricia
